Scam! I'm not falling for it!

So our company register our domain name with this company..

When we renewed the xxxx.com.au they said "OH! You can have xxx.net.au too for FREE!"

And I'm like no thanks.

"No we'll just give it to you at no charge!"

"We don't want it."

"But it gets registered together."

Well no point in fussing over something that's free, so I said OK do whatever.

A month later they called and said "We're doing some maintenance and have notice that your .net.au domain doesn't go anywhere. We can help you redirect your website for $5 a month!"

I SAW THROUGH YOU! YOU'RE NOT GETTING ANY MONEY FROM US FOR JUNK!

No thanks, I want to leave it blank.

HTML Code:

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function redir()
{
window.location.replace("www.xxxxx.com");
}
</script>
<body onLoad="redir()"></body>
</html>

There. Now give me $5.

Tell them to put a 301 redirect on the domain, and if they tell you they're going to charge you, tell them, "I wish to cancel my account."

Geez they phoned AGAIN! And lucky I have FF to tell me that it's only been a week since they phoned..

I thought it's been longer than that..

Told them to stop calling me.. I wonder if they will...
